When we all realise things are deliberately kept broken, and people are acting passive-aggressively... closing in on your space and at the same time asking for even more money...
then you can finally really accept "no I don't want to pay" and be yourself and start from there more often...

To some level let them handle / pay for it / waste their time in front of them to see you're not the criminal born into a world or system that doesn't ask or care what you think...
